Dr. Monde Muyangwa joined Mr. Mwangi Thuita of the African Peacebuilding Network (APN) of the Social Science Research Council (SSRC) for Kujenga Amani, a podcast series that provides listeners with informative commentary by scholars, practitioners, and policymakers working in the field of African peacebuilding.
Dr. Monde Muyangwa is featured in the fifth episode of Kujenga Amani, where she discusses her current projects and the field of African peacebuilding in general, including the changing nature of insecurity in Africa “both in scale and nuance,” the need for comprehensive peacebuilding frameworks on the continent as opposed to focusing primarily on conflict management, developing peacebuilding partnerships that are African-driven in terms of resources and agenda-setting, the gap between academic knowledge and policymaking, and the role of leadership and good governance in development.
